From: "Geo" I am so tired of finding that I can't browse anywhere without having microsoft record every damn place I go and using my computer as storage to hold this history in hidden places and against my commands. Ok try this, purge your cache, purge your cookies, use tweakUI to purge all, use whatever programs you like to remove all traces of where you have been browsing. Now go to your profile/local settings/temp/temporary internet files/content.ie5 and using notepad open index.dat then scroll to the very bottom (it's blank at the top in a last hope effort to fool you). WTF? I mean how hard do I have to work to keep my computer from recording my every browse or at least purging this shit when I tell it to? And this just changed recently (like with the april IE patches as it used to be profile/local settings/temporary internet files/content.ie5 (which is still there btw). Must have been some sort of an effort to break the special purge programs that are available. It's like MS is being told by homeland security to add forensic features to windows. This has now gotten to the point where I'm booting knoppix from CD to do my browsing.
